Fees and Charges

The Government announced on 27 June 1989 that the

CTV network licensee would not have to pay wayleave fees for laying cables under

under Government land. A fee will be charged for cables run through Government tunnels.

Additional Sound Channels

In connection with programmes acquired

acquired overseas and dubbed into Chinese, you are requested to put forward an outline proposal for

for the simultaneous transmission of the sound track in the original language.

Coverage of Remote Areas

Please set out your plans for serving Sai Kung and the outlying islands, particularly in the light of item (f).

I should like to take this opportunity to bring to your attention the fact that it is Government policy, subject to the approval the Legislative Council, to introduce legislation to cover the right of access by the CTV operator to private buildings and to make theft of service a criminal offence.

If there are any other points which you wish to discuss with, or bring to the attention of, the Government, I invite you to raise them at or before our meeting
